[Q] Apps not appearing in app drawer - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Hey,
I'm running Vanilla Rootbox-V4.0 kernel 3.4.45-cyanogenmod and I'm having trouble with my phone. I can't seem to find a couple of my apps in the app drawer I noticed. They were originally in the app drawer at one point in time and then when I tried to open it, it disappeared from the drawer. Any ideas what's wrong? I seem to be having other minor issues too and am wondering if I'm having kernel issues.

Stock launcher or custom launcher?

In the app drawer check that you don't have an extra tab for downloaded apps. I fell for that once lol

[Q] APP Drawer

For the APP Drawer is it possible to hide unused apps? Then maybe have a tab for different apps?
One app is everything, while another app is for games?
Is this possible?
Thanks.
With golauncher you can hide unused apps

You really didn't do any research did you?

Okay, well I know launchers can hide apps, cut that out, but I was really more focused on the second part.
Extra tabs? That can separate apps, like folders, but for the app drawer.

Frozen apps with titanium backup are all hidden upon boot.

Some launchers allow folder groups, don't know of any with more than one application drawer.

strange thing when disabling apps after new update.

So I Odined the new full stock ROM, cleared data/cache to start over fresh, bone stock. Now when I disable apps from the settings/applications menu, they used disappear from the apps list. Now in there place is a generic picture for all the disabled apps with the app name. I hit them and they just say app not found, or something like that.
Anyone else run in to this?
This is what Im talking about.

Press menu while in app drawer and then hide apps. That should remove them from the drawer.

Thanks, I realise I can do that, Im just wondering if its caused by the new update, or if its something with my phone itself.
If anyone has a few minutes to kill, and you've updated and stock, not rooted or anything with a lot of apps disabled, would you mind enabling them all, then rebooting the phone, and disabling them again? I know it's a PITA, so thank you very much.
I'm kinda new to Touchwiz, so I don't know if this would have any side effects, but you could try to clear data for the launcher then reboot.

First, questions belong in q&a.
More, about your problem. Try going into application manager and clearing cache and data for apex launcher. Be warned this will erase all your settings.

apex issue
Hi
I love the Apex Launcher and the added freedom on the Android system but have realised that now the application manager on my Galaxy Note 8 is not working. When i first drag the widget to the screen it shows how many applicatins are open but after i close them it doesnt update itself and doesnt work from then on... Any ideas? Please? :crying:

[Q] s planner and s note keeps force closing ???

All of the sudden both of these apps are not opening correctly, they both just stop and I get the unfortunately "splanner had to close" message. I'm running clean rom 3.5 but had no problems with it up to yesterday. I tried reloading a older version that I had backed up but no luck. How can I fix this??
Thanks
I'm no expert but I know doing "fix permissions" in recovery / rom manager can fix force close issues

Phone on LMT launcher

Does anybody know why the phone app on my LMT launcher does not work? I'm running wicked v5.1, stock deviant kernel. Is there a workaround? Thanks in advance... :beer::beer::beer:
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda premium
Were you asking how to get the lmt pie control to work included in wicked rom? You have to enter the settings and start lmt and then pick where you want it to open from. I hope I helped and if I read it wrong let me know of maybe I can try helping again.
No I'm sorry what I meant was I know how to use it, it's just when I add "phone" as one of the quick apps, it doesn't bring up the dialer?
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda premium
Hmm I see I just tried it and it didn't work for me either. I'm thinking of just installing the app itself (not using the wicked one) and see what happens.

Hello everyone! I am using LMT 2.0 and also have the same problem (the phone app does not work from the pie), but I think I have found a solution.
Under the list of normal commands about the pie, select "app" then select "CONTACTS" from the list of applications. This must be some kind of bug, because instead of opening the list of contacts, it opens up the phone dialer app, instantly.
(hopefully this works on other phones) (I am using a custom rom on jelly bean)
